Comment:

This tape was conceived and created in mid June 2003. It's a personal favourite, probably because all songs around that time of year seem better because you're in the sunshine walking around. This was made the night after going to see Gay Gary DJ-ing in a pub in town (hence the tape title) and walking home afterwards listening to Iron Maiden before falling asleep in a flower bed outside Howard Gardens in Cardiff. I bought loads of records in town the day I first listened to this tape, and it was just before the summer holiday, possibly my last EVER summer holidays, began.
